I've noticed a few problems with the new pccons.  Since 2/25's kernel,
I've noticed the message "pcprobe: reset error 2" on most (but not
all) boots.

In addition, I just noticed with today's kernel that most times pccons
tries to update the keyboard leds, it prints a message "pc: timeout
updating leds", but not always.  Despite the message, it changes the
leds correctly 100% of the time.  I have used both the caps-lock and
num-lock keys to test this.

When running X, things are slightly different.  Now, when pressing
caps-lock or num-lock, the warning message is printed 100% of the
time, and the leds change 0% of the time.  Before the pccons change
(2/23 I think), the keyboard leds worked properly in X.

Pccons works fine other than the messages and the leds (when running
X).

I'm running on a Gateway 2000 486 DX-2/66 VLB, 16mb RAM, Gateway
AnyKey keyboard, ATI Graphics Ultra Pro w/ 2mb VRAM.

Just for kicks, I tried the following change.  It made no difference
whatsoever as far as I could tell.
